I just previously visited the Macromedia Downloads page:

	http://www.macromedia.com/downloads

and clicked one of the first links I saw (near the top of the page): 
"Macromedia Web Players - Macromedia Flash Player". This took me to a 
page to download Flash Player 5 (not 6.0), which I assumed was their 
recommended version.

Based on your comments, I went back to this page but this time clicked 
the "Need a different player?" link to see what my options were. For the 
record, the page I landed on is here:

	http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/alternates/

It appears that Flash Player 6.0 is only available for Windows and Mac 
OSX. The only version *listed* for Linux is version 5. When you pull up 
the plugins page under Mozilla 1.1 on RH Linux 7.2 (by typing 
"about:plugins") what version does it claim you have installed?
